DhtmlCalendarHelper

Hi RoR community,

for my webapp I need the german date format.

To display the german date format like 31.12.2009, I implemented in the
environment.rb following:

ActiveSupport::CoreExtensions::date::Conversions::DATE_FORMATS.merge!(
:default => ’ %d.%m.%Y ’
)

If I use the DhtmlCalendarHelper “calendar_field” the date in edit-mode
is diplayed in german date-format, like 21.11.1990.

If I use the DhtmlCalendarHelper “calendar_box” the date in edit-mode
falls back to american date-format, like 1990-11-21.

Do somebody knows why?

Thanks ahead for every answer!

Regs,
